The D40X produces more outstanding and detailed pictures thanks to its 10.2-megapixel CCD and cutting-edge digital technologies.

Its resolution power makes it easy for users to print up very large sizes or crop aggressively without losing any fine details. The D40X is loaded with everything you need for truly amazing
images: a 10.2-megapixel CCD, Nikon?s exclusive 3D Colour Matrix Metering II, an improved Image Processing Engine and superb Auto White Balance. Together with a world-famous Nikkor lens, these
features combine to ensure perfect exposure, refined details and natural, vivid colours.

The D40X shares the D40?s ergonomic design and streamlined interface, which means the same intuitive operation that?s simple and fun ? even for entry-level users. The bright and clear viewfinder
ensures precise composition, while the 2.5-inch large LCD monitor utilises an easy-to-use menu system and a wide viewing angle so that everyone can navigate their settings and view their images
with ease. There is also a handy built-in Help menu which, makes it easier for users to navigate their way around the camera and provides useful information on the cameras key features.

The D40X near-instant power-up time (0.18 second) along with fast, reliable responses help photographers act on the moment, while the continuous shooting mode lets photographers easily capture up
to 100 JPEG images of action at as fast as 3 frames per second. The camera?s razor-sharp autofocus ensures crisp images for a wide variety of photographic scenes ensuring users capture amazing
images effortlessly.

Flash photography is simple with the D40X because the camera employs Nikon?s market-leading i-TTL flash control, which evaluates ideal flash exposure automatically and accurately, even in
difficult lighting situations.

Eight Digital Vari-Program modes offer creative shooting options that are optimised for common shooting situations. Fun, fast and simple, they are as easy to use as rotating the mode dial. For
further control over aperture and shutter speed, P/S/A/M modes are also available.

Exclusive in-camera image editing features are available in the Retouch menu. One of the main features is Nikon?s exceptional D-lighting, which brings out details usually lost in underexposed
areas of an image while retaining the proper exposure in brighter areas. Photographers can also correct red-eye easily, or use Monochrome effects to change an image to Black-and-white, Sepia tone
or Cyanotype.

Some of the D40X?s major improvements include an even longer-lasting battery that allows up to 520 images per charge faster continuous shooting at 3 frames per second and a wider ISO sensitivity
of 100 to 1600, plus HI-1.

While it inherits many advanced digital and optical technologies from professional models, the D40X and its sister model, the D40, are Nikon?s smallest, most compact digital SLR cameras. By
offering everyone mobility, ease-of-use and incredible pictures with great resolution, the D40X welcomes everyone to the world of Nikon digital SLR photography.
